Objective To analyze the effect of high quality nursing in gastroscopy examination. Method 1 300 pa﹣tients underwent gastroscopy from March 2014 to June 2014 were randomly divided to control group (n= 650) and intervention group (n= 650). Patients in control group received routine nursing, and patients in intervention group received high quality nursing intervention besides the routine nursing. Patients anxiety level, open state of esophageal meatus, one-time intubation success rate, and time-consumed in gastroscopy of the two groups were compared. Result Anxiety score between the two groups at the time of reservation was not statistically significant (P> 0.05), anxiety scores of the intervention group (31.40 ± 4.20) was lower than that of control group before gas﹣troscopy, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Open rate of esophageal meatus, one-time intuba﹣tion success rate, and time-consumed in gastroscopy of the intervention group (97.1%, 95.1%and 4.52 ± 1.23 min) were significantly better than those of the control group (79.4%, 82.3%and 5.42 ± 1.53 min). Conclusion The high quality nursing in gastroscopy can alleviate the anxiety level of patients, improve the success rate of gastroscopy, re﹣duce the pain of patients, and it is worthy of clinical promoting.

Objective To investigate the effects of modafinil,a new wake-promoting agent,on simulated flight performance during 48 h sleep deprivation(SD).Method Six male healthy young volunteers were exposed to two periods of 48 h continuous wakefulness during the crossover experiment.In one period,three 200 mg doses of modafinil were given and in the other,separated by two weeks,matching placebos were administered.The SD time started from 8:00 of the first day to 8:00 of the third day.Drug was given at 0:00,16:00 of the second day and 0:00 of the third day.Flight performance in J7-E flight simulator was tested at 21:00 of the first day and 1,3,5,7 h after each drug administration.Result The scores of simulated flight performance in the placebo group decreased with time during SD and became significant at 1:00～7:00 of the third day.Numbers of errors increased with time during SD,especially in the left ascending turn stage and the descending & landing stages.Compared with the placebo,flight performance was significantly increased after the third administration of modafinil.Numbers of errors during 48 h SD and at 1:00～7:00 of the third day in modafinil group was 19% and 40% lower than those in placebo group respectively.Conclusion Simulated flight performance during 48 h SD is significantly improved after repeated administration of modafinil,especially when the impacts of SD and the circadian trough are combined.

Objective To investigate the effect of leg cycle ergometer on walking ability of stroke patients with hemiplegia at convalescent period.Methods Seventy patients with hemiplegia after stroke for 3 to 6 months with a certain walking capability were randomly divided into the treatment group and control group with 35 cases in each group.The control group was treated with routine rehabilitation training;the treatment group was added with leg cycle ergometer training.All patients in the two groups were assessed with simplified Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA),Berg Balance Scale(BBS),ambulation capacity(walking time in 10 meters and walking distance in 6 minutes and Holden's functional ambulance classification),changes of spasticity,and the ability of daily living(ADL)at the time of begin and 6 weeks later.Results The motor function of lower extremity,balance performance,walking capability and ADL of the patients in two groups improved(P<0.05)after 6 weeks' treatment,but the therapeutic effect of the treatment group was better than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of leg cycle ergometer combined with routine rehabilitation training can distinctly improve the motor function of lower extremity,balance performance,walking ability and ADL for patients after stroke.

OBJECTIVE Aim to evaluate the mental level in 4-6 years old children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS). METHODS Children who were diagnosed as OSAHS with a whole night PSG monitor in the sleep center between January 2015 and August 2016, and 30 healthy children were included in the study. Intelligent levels were evaluated at the enrollment day. The following intelligent levels evaluation questionnaires were used: Wechsler Intelligence Scale for children and infants. Intelligent levels were compared between the patient and healthy control groups. RESULTS The 60 children, including 30 children with OSAHS(patient group) and 30 healthy children(control group) were enrolled. Comparison of the patient versus the control groups revealed that total intelligence quotient(FIQ) was 96.59±12.60 vs 102.53±8.44; language capability(VIQ) was 94.00±13.24 vs 101.03±9.41; comprehension test was 5.96±2.5 vs 7.57±2.14; visual analysis was 8.85±2.32 vs 10.3±1.93. All the 4 values in the patient group were significantly lower than those in the control group(all P ＜0.05). The accumulated time of SO2＜90％ correlated with PIQ negatively and significantly. CONCLUSION The intelligent level of children with OSAHS was in the normal range, but lower than that of healthy group. Snoring affects the IQ level of 4-6 years old children, and the influence on PIQ is closely related to the accumulated time of SO2＜90％ in total sleep time.

Objective To investigate the effect of emotional resilience group training on perceived stress,anxiety and depression in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.Methods 325 cases of patients with gastric cancer were divided into experimental group(n=163) and control group(n=162) by random digital table method.Two groups of patients were treated with chemotherapy and routine treatment and the experimental group was trained once a week for 8 weeks of emotional resilience group training.Chinese version perceived stress(CPSS),SDS and SAS were used to evaluate the effect of intervention before and after intervention.Results After 8 weeks of emotional elastic group training,the CPSS score((39.98±4.82) vs (33.96±5.02)),SAS score((48.83±4.58) vs (42.12±4.01)) and SDS score((49.23±4.12) vs (45.21±3.27))were lower than those before the intervention (all P＜ 0.05).The difference of CPSS ((-6.02 ± 3.74) vs (-0.19±2.78)),SAS((-6.71±3.86) vs (-0.39±5.62)) and SDS((-4.02±2.03) vs (-0.62±2.31)) before and after the intervention of the two groups were statistically significant(t=-9.325,-9.529,-6.132,P＜0.01).Conclusion Emotional resilience group training can effectively reduce the level of perceptual stress in patients with gastrointestinal cancer,and improve depression and anxiety.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the major influence factors of child neglect among rural areas children aged 3-6 years in China.

METHODSAccording to multi-stage stratified cluster sampling, distribution characteristics and the level of economic development, we randomly sampled 10 provinces, 26 cities (8 capital cities, 16 prefecture-level cities and 2 municipalities) using lottery method. Depending on the different level of economic and cultural, we sampled one medium county from each city (municipalities sampled two counties), a total of 28 counties. All towns were divided into high, medium and low three levels in accordance with economic and cultural, each level sampled one town, each conty sampled three towns, a total of 84 towns were sampled. Each town sampled 40 children, including 20 boys and 20 girls (including each 10 children aged 3 to 6, half and half boys and girls). 4 096 rural children aged 3-6 years old were sampled and surveyed of China. Based on "the Neglect Norms for Children Aged 3 to 6 Years Old in Rural Areas of China" explored the risk factors of child neglect. SPSS 18. 0 for windows was employed for statistics analysis. Multifactorial analysis was conducted through multivariate Logistic Regression.

RESULTSThe total neglected rate of the rural children aged 3 to 6 was 53.7% (2,047/3,810), and the total neglected degree was 44.42±7.57. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that, neglected risk of the boys was higher than the girls (OR=1.30, 95% CI: 1.13-1.49), neglected risk of children were higher, when their mothers were migrant workers (OR=2.18, 95% CI: 1.59-3.00); the lower educational level of mothers, the higher neglected risk of children, the children in families that mothers only received primary education or was uneducated were most likely to be neglected (OR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.91-4.47), the second was the families that mothers received primary education (OR=1.86, 95% CI: 1.29-2.69); the lower the household income, the easier to be neglected the children, the easiest one was the household income less than 5000 RMB (OR=2.85, 95% CI: 2.14-3.79), the second was 5000-9,999 RMB (OR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.40-2.20); the relationship between children and mothers was distanced, neglect risk of children was higher (OR=3.88, 95% CI: 1.31-11.52); left behind children were easier to be neglected (OR=1.30, 95% CI: 1.09-1.54).

CONCLUSIONThe influence factors among children aged 3-6 years in the rural areas of China were boys, mother's occupation, maternal education level, the relationship between children and mothers, household income and left-behind children.

OBJECTIVE Aims to investigate the expression changes of immunoregulatory cytokines in peripheral blood and local lesions of patients with juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis(JORRP),and analyze their correlation with the severity of JORRP.METHODS Peripheral blood samples were collected from JORRP patients,along with peripheral blood samples from healthy children matched for gender and age as the control group.Papillomas of JORRP patients were collected,and the epithelial tissue from the palatine tonsils of patients undergoing tonsillectomy served as a control.ELISA was used to detect cytokine concentrations in plasma samples.The tissue samples were detected by mRNAseq and verified by RT-PCR.Furthermore,the correlation between cytokine expression levels and disease severity was analyzed.RESULTS The concentration of interleukin-10(IL-10)in the plasma of JORRP patients was significantly higher than that in the healthy control group(P<0.05),and it was negatively correlated with the age of onset(r=-0.3307,P<0.05).At the level of mRNA,the relative quantity of IL-10 in papillomas was significantly higher in the aggressive group compared to the non-aggressive group(P>0.05).Additionally,the concentration of TGF-β in plasma of JORRP patients was positively correlated with the number of surgeries(r=0.5144,P<0.05),and the concentration of TGF-β in the aggressive group was significantly higher than that in the non-aggressive group(P<0.05).The TGF-β mRNA expression level was significantly higher in the papillomas of JORRP patients compared to the control(P<0.001).CONCLUSION Inhibitory immunoregulatory cytokines IL-10 and TGF-β are overexpressed in JORRP patients and positively correlated with disease severity.

Objective:To investigate the pathogenesis, clinical signs and diagnosing procedures of relapsing polychondritis(RP) in children with airway involvement.Methods:The medical history, clinical symptoms, physical examination, electronic laryngoscopy and imaging findings of six patients were retrospectively analyzed. The patients diagnosed as relapsing polychondritis with involving the airway from January 2018 to December 2021 were in our hospital. The clinical features of the 6 cases were summarized.Results:All 6 patients were male, ranging in age from 8 years 1 month to 14 years 1 month, with a median age of 12.04 years. Stridor and dyspnea were observed in all patients, with hoarseness in 2 patients and frequently nocturnal dyspnea during sleep in 2 patients. Initially, all children were diagnosed as laryngitis or laryngotracheitis, and were treated symptomatically with glucocorticoids and aerosol inhalation. Immunosuppressants and targeted therapy with biologics were given after patients diagnosed as RP. All patients were ultimately required tracheostomy. The time from the onset of airway symptoms to tracheostomy ranged from 1 month to 27 months. Two children had a history of endotracheal intubation prior to tracheostomy. All 6 patients underwent electronic laryngoscopy, revealing involvement of the laryngeal and subglottic mucosa and cartilage structures, which showed gradual improvement with medical therapy. Computed tomography (CT) of the trachea with three-dimensional reconstruction was performed in all patients, demonstrating moderate to severe subglottic stenosis. Two patients exhibited complete airway obstruction at the C4-C6 cervical level. Three children underwent suspension laryngoscopy under general anesthesia and endotracheal mucosal biopsy.Of the 6 children, 3 presented with nasal tip collapse or saddle nose, 2 had auricular cartilage changed, and 1 had scleralinvolvement. One patient underwent PET-CT scanning, which revealed tracheal collapse, diffuse increase in FDG(Flurodeoxyglucose)metabolism with increased FDG uptake in the nasal alar regions. All children were followed up for 2-3 years, 1 child died, while the remaining five continued to receive medical treatment.Conclusions:Relapsing polychondritis with airway involvement has an insidious onset and is difficult to diagnose. The airway stenosisresulting from RP is always severe and necessitating tracheotomy to maintain airway patency in the majority of cases.The treatment coursef or RP is prolonged, requiring long-term tracheostomy tube placement.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the therapeutic effect of autologous costal cartilage transplantation with anterior/posterior split of cricoid cartilage on laryngotracheal stenosis in children.METHODS A retrospective analysis of 12 cases of laryngotracheal stenosis in children treated with anterior/posterior split of cricoid cartilage combined with T-tube implantation in Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University in recent years.There were 5 males and 7 females,aged from 2 years and 6 months to 16 years and 9 months,with an average age of 8 years and 9 months.There were 2 cases of grade Ⅱ stenosis,9 cases of grade Ⅲ stenosis and 1 case of grade Ⅳ stenosis.All cases underwent tracheotomy before operation.The course of disease ranged from 4 months to 6 years,with an average of 3 years.RESULTS Of the 12 patients,10(83.3％)were cured,and the tracheotomy cannula was successfully removed to restore normal breathing and pronunciation function.There were 2 cases of extubation failure,including 1 case of grade Ⅲ stenosis and 1 case of grade Ⅳ stenosis.CONCLUSION The etiology of laryngotracheal stenosis in children is complex and difficult to treat.Anterior/posterior split costal cartilage transplantation combined with T-tube implantation through internal/external cervical approach can achieve good therapeutic effect in the treatment of laryngotracheal stenosis in children.
